About this property

Stunning, Spacious & Modern Architectural Motuoapa Bach - Sleeps 12

This architectural designed Bach with Mirrored Sleeping Wings - perfect for two families or groups to enjoy being together but also enjoying being able to have their own sleeping and bathroom space (each wing sleeps 6).

To also be enjoyed by couples or individuals!!

The central living area is the heart of the home, with large glass sliding doors opening on to a sunny deck – perfect to sit together at the 12-seater table with doors wide open to the deck in summer, or beside the toasty, glowing fire in the cooler months.

The modern open plan kitchen has a fantastic kitchen bench and all appliances making communal cooking inclusive and even fun! There is a handy BBQ - perhaps to cook that freshly caught fish!!

Across the road is a reserve for those games of cricket or just to run around and simply play, plus there is a tennis court and basketball court 1 minute away. The home is in a family-friendly suburb with children riding bikes and scooters, offering a relaxed, classic New Zealand neighbourhood feel.

Located less than 30 minutes South of Taupo and less than 10 minutes North of Turangi this central location is perfect to access a wide range of year-round activities including fishing, boating, water sports, snow sports, mountain biking and the Tokaanu Hot Pools. Motuoapa Marina is less than a 5-minute drive from the house and if you feel like a dip in the beautiful, refreshing Lake Taupo take a 5-minute drive down the road to the lovely Oruatua Recreational Reserve. Stunning! There is also the renown Liquorice Café down the road.
